Drippy, Soaked, Splash Mountain








We went to Disneyland last week on Friday after speech therapy. It was hot, so we decided to go on Splash Mt. We have been on it several times and never been soaked like this.

Peter and I sat in the front. After the first little hill, our left sides were soaked and my left shoe was absolutely filled with water! Then we went around a corner to the right. Our right sides were completely soaked and my right shoe could have hosted a goldfish!

All of this and we hadn't even gone down the big hill yet. Peter was howling in the front. He was saying again and again, "I'm so soaked, I am completely soaked!!!" I was ducking behind him and laughing so hard.

As we went down the big hill at the end, Peter and I knew we had no chance. A huge wave came up over the front of the boat and seemed to stop above us like a cartoon. Then it splashed down on Peter with its full soaking power!!! As I crouched behind him, all that was spared of my clothing was the front of my shirt that Peter blocked.

Peter was completely and totally soaked, as if he had jumped in a swimming pool. He was literally wringing water out of his shirt for hours. I am laughing while I remember it now. He really took it for the team!
